This area is unforgiving and is big fire area. May end up being a team activation due to remoteness.
IC is having AA work with an incoming BC to find access roads for the area West of COALINGA Mineral Road.
Chiefs planning on augment tonights resources and extended attack resources for tomorrow.
VLAT offered up by SoOps.
2 additional Charlie strike teams, 4 dozers, 4 crews, 4 water tenders, ordered.
IC is ordering the VLAT
Access is going to be a huge problem. Area is horrible.
SLU sending Strike Team 9340 Charlie
Command FKU Local 1 = 151.385
Air Tactics 4 = 151.28
T-104 enroute
Believe the IC just said 400 acres with the potential to go extended/major…radio traffic is scratchy at best
Not to nitpick, but this is another cultural terminology gap. By definition, this fire was extended attack 2 hours ago.
IC used both terms…guess he was covering his bases…LOL
It definitely has two large headers now.
Anyone have scanner link for this incident
This is the only one, unfortunately it’s mixed with other stuff.
They added FKU to the feed and you hear air attack
They are using 151.385
And becoming major within the next few hours!
